Suddenly I wake up and you're next to me
And I'm suddenly aware that I am yours
And suddenly sudden don't seem so sudden anymore

I wish I never strayed away from loving you
And I wish I never caused you any pain
But wishing doesn't seem to get me anywhere
But me wishing my life away

So I'm gonna hold on to this feeling now
I'm gonna hold on and see it through
I'm gonna spend the rest of my life
Makin' it up to you
I'm gonna make it up to you

It was another way to shade the truth
Another lame and sad excuse
All the reasons I feel so ashamed
And I just hope you now see my humility
And love all my shame away

Cause I'm gonna hold on to this feeling now
I'm gonna hold on and see it through
But we sure don't have a whole lot of time
I ain't got much money of any kind
All I got it the rest of my life
To make it up to you
I'm gonna make it up to you

I'm gonna show you the kind of man I am
I'm gonna show what I can do
I'm gonna spend the rest of my life
I'm gonna spend the rest of my life
I'm gonna spend the rest of my life
Makin' it up to you
I'm gonna make it up to you
I'm gonna make it up to you
I'm gonna make it up to you
